Ibotta

The first day that I opened an account everything was working fine on my phone app. After I went out for shopping on the 3rd day, I was trying to open the app and didn't work. It was coming with an "error". Tried the next day, same thing. Tried the following day, same thing. Tried again today, still not working. So, I went and try it on my computer, and it won't let me in, nor any code was sent to my email. I clicked many times the resend bottom so I could get a code, but never send me any. By the way, I also checked my spam mail just in case. So, they offer 14 days from the day I open my account to have a free 5 dollars for the first shopping receipt, and 15 dollars if completed 9 shopping receipts in the 14 days period. Now I'm wondering if they are waiting for the 14 days to pass so they don't have to give what they offer or is it just a scam? Since I seem the other review, I totally believe in them now that I'm going through the same deal. This review should have negative five stars, that's what they deserve.

I was scammed by ibotta a few years ago and swore I would never use it again. During the COVID shutdown, I came across a new SM platform and subsequently found the "Couponers" that tell you how to coupon and get a stockpile of products.
I came across a few that swear by ibotta so I decided to give ibotta another chance.
BIG... HUGE MISTAKE!
I have 8 receipts that I've been trying to scan but the app won't let me do it. I should have known better than to trust this horrible scamming app

With the Ibotta app, it was fun to see the savings grow! I did not withdraw any savings for a while and then I claimed a $20 gift card as a birthday present for a friend. I was supposed to get an e-mail with a link on how to obtain the actual card and I didn't get it. I asked for help in the app and hit the "resend" button. Didn't get any response either. Finally, I contacted customer service and after a few days I got the link and it worked (my friend had a belated birthday gift). I thought Ibotta was still sorting out how things worked with the app and that was the reason for the delay. Fast forward six plus months and I decide to withdraw two $20 gift cards from two different retailers. Same story: I got no e-mail with the link to retrieve the cards. After ten days of zero, zippo, nada, I e-mailed Ibotta again and this time they answered they had "manually" sent the link to my e-mail. I've been carefully checking the junk mail and inbox and have yet to see why their magic fingers didn't work on that manual task. I will e-mail them until I get my response. Nope, I'm not forgetting my hard-earned rewards! I haven't had any problems redeeming the offers and increasing my savings, but cashing in those savings has certainly been problematic.

My daughter shared this app with me and I have already saved $25 in the two times I have used it. I am excited to learn the app better and save even more money.

I enjoy using this app because I love making savings (that's what I call it). There are some great deals for the different store that shop. A++ for the app :)

You will not regret downloading Ibotta! It is so easy to save money and you can choose how you redeem your earnings! If you are questioning downloading the app, do it!

So easy to use at Walmart,cvs and target and the another stores.

Love how this works since I think I have it figured out.

To me, Ibotta is a scam they want your credit card information
Because they will debited from your account due to account inactivity
In lifetime earnings I made $14.35 Now my current earnings is $0.10
I will be UNSUBSCRIBE!

Be careful not all items qualify and there is no one to contact

Seemed like only AI machines reply

I have used Ibotta for over 2 yrs now. I have made just over $400 in lifetime earnings. I loved using this app. It was like a blessing to my family to make money back on stuff I'm gonna buy anyway... Well the other day I get an email about a tampered receipt then another one shortly after that my account has been deactivitated. I emailed them and just got emailed back today that they have reviewed my case and they are permanently closing my account. I messaged them back saying I'm sorry if I violated any terms and I'm sure it won't happen again. I get another email shortly after saying they're firm on their decision. Wth?! I have $68 on there that I just don't get now? I earned that by purchasing items and they basically just get away with stealing what people earn whenever they feel like it. I have not recieved a response after that email but I basically said that it's one thing to deactivate an account but it's quite another for them to steal from people! IDC it's a rebate I earned for purchases I've made. I can't believe that they can get away with this!

I love this app! It is so easy to use and in a short amount of time, I have already saved $100! This is a no-brainer. Sign up, you have nothing to lose.

I have had Ibotta for 9 months now. I have earned about $145 over that time period, but most of it is from bonuses and online shopping (like Amazon).

At first it worked great for the grocery. Before you go shopping you select the offers you want. At my regular grocery store (Pick n Save), the store and Ibotta had some deal where the store sent Ibotta the receipts and they were automatically processed. Now my store got bought out (by Kroeger) and it's not automated anymore. When I come home from shopping I have to take a picture of my receipt and then scan the bar code of every item I want to redeem an offer on. Since most of the rebates are on processed food and I don't buy a ton of it, I generally only earn $1 or so for each shopping trip. It's just a lot of work for how much you get back. I'm spending 20 minutes every week reviewing and selecting offers and then scanning bar codes for like a $1. I don't really have anything better to do, but still!

Also, a bunch of these reviews are talking about not being able to get their money out. It worried me so I just cashed out my balance. It was a process because I had to connect to my paypal account and reset my Ibotta password for some reason, but it worked fine. I suspect a lot of these people are scamming.

I love using the app! You get rewards on every visit to the grocery store! Invite all your family and friends, they will love it too and you will get some extra cash!

Won't give you your referral bonus when you refer someone, not worth wasting your time on, I referred my daughter and she got her bonus but I never got mine

I had given Ibotta a bad review because I purchased a Walmart gift card and didn't get it. But they investigated the problem and made sure that I got it

Always a pleasant planned shopping trip, and on the off chance something goes wrong there are very helpful people on the other end to make things right.
